Presentation Transcript

  1. Boot TI Keystone II Linux Kernel (RAM File-system) Vincent Han Mar, 2014

  2. Agenda • Environment Settings • Boot Linux Kernel (RAM File-system)

  3. Environment Settings • We use the XTCIEVMK2X EVM as the example • Before run the Linux kernel, please make sure the following points are done: • Installed MSCDK on PC • Installed USB to COM driver on PC • Burnt U-Boot on EVM SPI Flash (should be compatible with kernel) • Change the BMC to the “ARM SPI Boot” mode • Insert and connect mini-USB cable on EVM USB com port • Insert and connect Ethernet cable on ENET0 (RJ45) port

  4. Environment Settings • Make sure the U-boot environment variables’ settings are the actual Linux kernel related files you want to use • We use the prebuilt images and files in MCSDK as the example, the prebuiltfiles are in path of ${MCSDK_LINUX_INSTALL_PATH}/images • We can use the following command to check these variables: envprint • For RAM file system, we should choose the correct boot method: setenvboot ‘ramfs’ • We can use such command to modify other variables, e.g.: setenv${COMMAND_NAME} ‘${VALUE}’

  5. Environment Settings

  6. Environment Settings • Please note the value of “args_ramfs” • Default value is “args_ramfs=setenvbootargs ${bootargs} earlyprintkrdinit=/sbin/initrw root=/dev/ram0 initrd=0x802000000,9M” • “9M” here means the file system size ceiling for Mbyte • Please modify this value to the actual size of the file system • We can use the following command to set the server IP: setenvserverip‘XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX’ • Then use the following command to save back to NAND: saveevn

  7. Agenda • Environment Settings • Boot Linux Kernel (RAM File-system)

  8. Boot Linux Kernel (RAM File-system) • Before you boot Linux kernel, please make sure the Ethernet you connected with EVM has DHCP, or you need to set the IP address manually • If you configured the environment variables correctly, U-Boot will boot Linux Kernel automatically by default. • Please note when using RAM file-system, Linux Kernel, Boot Monitor and DTB files will be download through Ethernet during every boot time. • For more information, please refer operation guide on deyisupport: http://www.deyisupport.com/question_answer/dsp_arm/c6000_multicore/f/53/t/23812.aspx

  9. Thank You!
